Spring up, O well of blessing,
Spring in our midst to-day;
For thirsty souls are longing
To drink abundantly.
Come from the hidden fountains,
Come in a brimming flood;
Refresh us in the desert
Thou precious gift of God.
We sing the song that Israel sang
In the desert long ago:
“Spring up, O well,
Spring up, O well;”
Let the living waters flow.
Spring up, O well of blessing,
We cry to Thee to-day;
Break forth in mighty torrent,
As now we sing and pray.
The souls that round us perish—
The old, the young, the strong;
To Thee, by right and ransom,
The Lord of Hosts belong.
We sing the song that Israel sang
In the desert long ago:
“Spring up, O well,
Spring up, O well;”
Let the living waters flow.
Spring up, O well of blessing,
We sing to Thee to-day;
The “princes” and the “nobles”
Thy great command obey:
In toiling and in labour,
Amid the burning sand,
Spring up, flow forth, and gladden
The whole expectant land.
We sing the song that Israel sang
In the desert long ago:
“Spring up, O well,
Spring up, O well;”
Let the living waters flow.
